I have been to Rons house on top oif the hill and must say as nice as Rons system is the best part of his system is Ron himself he is the nicest guy on the planet. , I have been in the hot seat at his house and suggested we switch something around to see how it sounds and he is almost always willing to try it. That said I think his Clarisys panel speakers sound better than his Gryphon Pendragon's but OCD Mike is right, for realy bass heavy music in Rons room you would need some sub woofers, in a much smaller room the Clarisys are just fine witi a sub.

@OCDHIFiGuy I totally understand and didn't mean to sound stuffy. It's just amazing to me the cost of some of the equipment like this. I collect vintage audio. I just can't imagine my ears really being able to appreciate the difference in sound once you get into some of these realms. I think it's extremely cool that these guys are into this market and not to mention the quality and design that go into these products. I know we all have what we enjoy and spend too much money on sometimes. But as long as it makes us happy, that's what's important. Oh, and I drive an inexpensive, practical car as well.
